About this listen

 This reissue of the 1919 classic combines the immortal stories from Homer's Iliad and Odyssey into one glorious saga of heroism and magical adventure. Beloved by generations, Padraic Colum's masterful retelling of these epic adventures is remarkably fresh, consistently spellbinding, and unmatched for its richness and poetry. It carries a new generation of young readers to ancient Greece with Odysseus and Achilles who, guided by the gods, seek vengeance against the Trojans, and follows Odysseus on his perilous journey, through the land of the Cyclopes, past Circe the Enchantress, the terrible Charybdis and the six-headed serpent Scylla.(P)2000 Blackstone Audiobooks Action & Adventure Anthologies & Short Stories Classics Fairy Tales, Folk Tales & Myths Greek & Roman Historical Historical Fiction Literature & Fiction History For Kids Kids Literature Myths For Children
